  <body>
    <p>The Apache Beam SDK for Java provides a simple and elegant
       programming model to express your data processing pipelines;
       see the <a href="https://beam.apache.org/">Apache Beam website</a>
       for more information and getting started instructions.</p>

    <p>The easiest way to use the Apache Beam SDK for Java is via
       one of the released artifacts from the
       <a href="http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.apache.beam%22">
       Maven Central Repository</a>.

    <p>Version numbers use the form <i>major</i>.<i>minor</i>.<i>incremental</i>
       and are incremented as follows:<p>
    <ul>
      <li>major version for incompatible API changes</li>
      <li>minor version for new functionality added in a backward-compatible manner</li>
      <li>incremental version for forward-compatible bug fixes</li>
    </ul>
